Another storm brewing over the sea here

I think the ones in the bristol channel are starting to die down now as the front has moved more in land. ANyone agree or is it still worth another drive to the front for more pics

We are not out of the woods yet. Id say still got some more storms to come

Can someone please give me your honest opinion, is it likely I'll see some lightning in South Bucks tonight or will it skip slightly to the west of me?

[Neilsouth]

Can confirm Lightning visible from South London and South Essex from the Cells that are over 80 miles away about 10 miles off the coast of Southern England.

Think it should hit land in the next hour (2am) and then head further North to be in the London area for about 4am at a guess

Can see it here too, impressve anvil shield.

Classic thundery low setup developing, the trough is swinging up from the South and becoming increasingly E-W oriented.

[kamboocha_mushroom]

Would it not have considerably weakened by the time it gets into the London area?

[Pickles]

If this rain keeps up as it has for the last hour or so then there are going to be some considerable problems for a good many people.

[Neilsouth]

Looking good!

More altocumulus from the south , very calm , lots of damp and muggy

[kamboocha_mushroom]

Meanwhile Meto upgraded a bunch of Southern areas from Yellow to Orange, including London!
